How much of lift is needed for a duramax to be able to run at least 35's maybe even 37's and look good?

Thanks,
Luke

I run 35's on my 4" and my cousin runs 37"s on his 6" thats about as tight as theyll get. Just have to have the offset so it will fit right check out my thread if u want to see pics called "new to the site" i just posted it

I run an 8" lift with 37s. I have the torsion bars cranked just a little and my lower valence trimmed just a little also. I think it looks good. However, a SAS with 40s will look better

I run 35's with the 6" Cognito lift, it works and looks really good. Though I had to turn up the torsion rods a bit to keep the 35" toyo's from rubbing my inner fender well.

All depends on the backspacing and width of the wheel. I would run a 6" for 35's and 8" minimum for 37's.

RideRed hit it on the head. You will not like the look of stuffing 37's in the there with a 6"
